HONORING THE LIFE AND SERVICE OF DWIGHT EMANUELSON
(Mr. CARTER of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Madam Speaker, I rise today with a heavy heart to remember and honor Dwight Emanuelson of Hilton Head, South Carolina, who sadly passed recently at the age of 88.
Dwight had an impactful career serving his community. After graduating from Cornell University, he began a lifelong career as a successful broker that brought him to Savannah, Georgia. Although Dwight worked in the financial services industry for over 60 years, his passion for life and love for his family is what defined him.
Dwight also had a lifelong passion for art, which he shared generously with the Telfair Museum of Art in Savannah.
When Dwight wasn't admiring artwork, he was enjoying the outdoors with his children and grandchildren. Dwight's dedication to improving the lives of others will never be forgotten.
I am proud to rise today to honor Dwight and his lifetime of service to Georgia's First Congressional District. My thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends, and all who knew him during this most difficult time.
